How are you "passing" the variable to an email form? You typically never
NEED to create a funky variable name if creative string solutions could do
the job. How about something like "f_31" until you have to package it up to
send? And how does the end process know the variable name?

var str:String = "f#31";
this [ str.split("#").join("_") ] = "test";
trace( this.f_31 ) // test

Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] variable with # sign

this[f#31] = "TEXT:Email%20Address";

This could work for you I guess, it wont give you a compiler error,
but I would revise the code since I wouldnt suggest this "ugly" solution.

If you could show more code on how you are sending the data,
as well as what Flash Player version you are targeting there would
easier to give you a more helpful hand if you want the solution to
be more legit than the solution above.
